Posts Tagged ‘Photon merged mining’

Just a few days since Blakecoin and Photon crypto coins got merged mining support and now there is a third coin available as well – BlakeBitcoin, so you can now mine Blakecoin and get Photon and BlakeBitcoin as well. These coins all use the Blake-256 algorithm and need a specific miner with support for the algorithm, you can find the required software below. BlakeBitcoin is still a very new coin and there are still no exchanges, but BLC and PHO are already traded. Furthermore we are soon most likely going to see two more Blake-256 crypto coins added in the mix of merged mining cryptos along BlakeCoin, these are Dirac and Atom, so you should be able to mine for BLC and get 4 extra cryptos as bonus thanks to the merged mining support.

Blakecoin (BLC) and Photon (PHO) are two crypto currencies based on the Blake 256 algorithm and there are already two pools available where you can do merged mining of the two coins. The work on adding merged mining for Blake-256 algorithm coins has been going on for some time by the developer of the Blake-256 algorithm and it seems that he has finally been able to make things work properly.

Do note that the merged mining pools listed above are still in beta and there could still be some small issues, though our initial testing has shown that they are running pretty well already. Hopefully the availability of merged mining pools will boost the popularity of the Blake-256 algorithm and the coins that use it such as Blakecoin as they are indeed interesting.
